Does Gary Day not learn?

Gary Day has seemingly decided that enough time has passed since his last lambast of students for another dose of his prejuidices to be hoisted upon them.

Following on from his condescending article in the Times Higher in February

He is quoted as part of a Guardian Article on the development of a new learning space at Oxford Brookes.

This phrase just jumped out of the page...

"Most students spend their time trying to avoid lecturers, except when it's time to hand in essays and then they urgently need to discuss family problems and the break-up of their relationships."

What a charmer.

Now I quite like the idea of this type of development (and really like the Glasgow Caledonian example) but I can see there are valid questions/critiques I just dont understand why he has to be such a cunt while doing it
